Helping Hands from 2004

[Sky Christopherson]

Just wanted to let everyone in SoCal know that I am making my Sony FX1 available for rent for anyone that wants to do some thorough testing of this camera.

So far the results have been amazing from what I have shot. I think once Lumiere releases the FX1 support, we will have a solid camera/workflow.

For members of this forum, Ill make a discounted rate. Email for more info at sky@amorgen.com

Also more info at http://www.amorgen.com

Thanks!

Getting ready to start pre production on a short titled "old friends"
it's a story of a successful buisness executive, richard, who runs in to someone he used to know in highschool while waiting for his train to work.
The chance meeting puts richard in a terifiying and seemingly imposable situation.

I'm taking resumes from anyone who would like to help out. Here is the Crew Call at Mandy.com:

I've also posted an actor's call on actornews.com
2 Male roles late 20s early 30s
1 femal role late 20s early 30's

This is a short script and shouldn't take more than a weekend to do, I'm aiming for the last weekend in january. That's asuming we can fill all the vital crew positions and equipment reqirurements.



If anyone wants to read the script, apply for a crew position, cast position, etc. etc. send me an email at:

Anybody know of anyplace around London, Ontario Canada that will rent out a Canon GL2 or XL1S for a day?

[Jimmy McKenzie]

Edcom. Meadowbrook drive.
I'm not sure which brands are in their current stable ... they were on a dvx100 kick for a while...
The banner at the top of their website shows the lens of an xl1s.

[Gerald Baillgergeau]

Our production is in need of a DP that has used or is familiar with a XL1/mini35 setup. Most likely we'll be getting a XL2 before we do principle shooting. Someone with experience in working with blue/green screen is a plus, for the story will be FX driven. It's gonna be a three day shoot ... some sound stage and outdoor shots. If interested you can email me (gbtracklight@tmail.com) and we can go over the particulars. The producer/writer's vision is bigger then the budget so creativity is gonna be key..... Yes, it's a paying gig. Thanks

All Florida DVX users!

Movie: We are to shoot a movie titled “MIX IT LIK A RECORD”.

Location:

http://www.supersonicstudios.com/

Miami Lakes FL

Movie Website:

http://harddisklife.com/HDL.html


The 3-5 day shoot will take place over a 2 week period 1-5-2005 to 1-25-2005 and will be shot sporadically depending on scheduling variables. Those who commit must be able to be somewhat flexible but we are making every effort to execute the shoot in consecutive days beginning on the 5th.

It will use advanced videography techniques that include multi-camera shooting, dolly & crane shots, cinematic lighting. Needless to say, the audio will rock too.

We are seeking DVX users to participate in the shoot. Those who are chosen will be guaranteed production credits in the movie.

We will base our decisions more on dedication and reliability than anything else. Since the producer and some of the crew are traveling from Seattle WA to FL we can’t afford to work with anyone who might “back out” or be a “no show”. If it’s going to be a maybe for you, we would appreciate that you decline rather than be unsure. If it’s a for sure deal, than welcome aboard! This movie is going to be a lot of fun.

Thank You

Kent

I've been doing video-editing for a little over a year. I'm interested in editing jobs. I'm in San Diego. I use IMovie for editing and many who have seen my work are surprised since I'm fairly new at this. I'm open to any type of editing job where I can use my creative talents.
Here is my video home page with many samples of my work...
http://homepage.mac.com/richsheikh/Menu17.html

I did the shooting with a one chip Sony DV camera. I've won some video contests with 2 of my video's. Yes I know that IMovie is an entry level editing software from Mac but its not the software that makes a great video its the creative talent of the editor. If interesed feel free to e-mail me.

Hi everyone:

I am a 28 yr. old internet project manager who is looking to leave the corporate world and start an event videography business. I am seeking others who might be interested in working with/for or even becoming my partner in Palm Beach County. I am willing to finance the business, NLE rig, and cameras. I am really looking for a partner or business contact who is:

Quasi-Experienced, may have own business, may just enjoy shooting and want to take it to the next level. Some NLE experience, has contacts already established, and is looking for partner as well. Might just be you have camera, and want to begin shooting events. Should also add that this person should be friendly, outgoing and have a good personality, as they will need to help in the sales and marketing of the business.

Let me know what your thoughts are. I am open for ideas and new concepts.

Look forward to hearing from you.

John

[Samuel Small]

DBC Productions is currently looking for Videographers to help with our 2005 calendar of Standup comedy shows. We are a small startup comedy looking for camera opereators at any level (No experience OK as we will offer enough shoots to learn). Our basic production days are Friday & Saturday nights. Pay depends on the venue. In most cases we provide meals for staff. If you are in the NYC area, we will provide transportation if you don't have. We also are planning shoots outside of the NY area as well. All interested parties, please reply via email to ssmallsr@diamondbackbroadcasting.com. Please contact for further info. The one demand that is mandatory is that you bring your skills, idea and imagination to the shoots.
